Hi Lisa,

I came to Canada in December 2009, I came to manage a farm,but the farm was in the process of going bankrupt ,I guess I did not do my homework,anyway the job never happened although I worked there until July 2010 with no pay and also losing money,by investing in machinery and tools for that farm.I lost well over $100,000 altogether with the little money I had left I paid a deposit on a small holding near Mount Brydges again I trusted people (not GOD ) and that farm was a place where Drinking water was collected for Strathroy, and could not be farmed (could not use any type of manure or fertilizer,) I really was at the end of my rope financially, physically, mentally.

I started to go to New Hope Church in January 2010, I made some friends there and in November 2010 ,a group of friends asked me to go with them to Hamilton, Ontario to a healing conference, I went with them, it was nothing short of a farce,Truth was it was the last straw for me I was sure there was no GOD just people trying to make money out of other other people.I was still living on the farm at Mount Brydges. (trying to get my deposit back.)

About a week after going to Hamilton a friend told me there was going to be a healing conference at Rob and Lisa’s house and wanted me to come, I told him to get lost I wanted nothing more to do with healing or with GOD for that matter. He kept on and on and on,he just would not give up ,so to please him I said I would go to one session.

The conference was run by three ladies from Guelph,they were connected with be in health ministry,When the first speaker started to speak, she could not speak for coughing,then she took authority in the name of JESUS for the coughing to stop,and for all evil spirits to leave that place.and for the power of the Holy Spirit to fill the room ,WAOOOO,the coughing stopped, the atmosphere changed, it was what I was waiting for all my life, to be in a GOD filled house,with GOD fearing people with GOD in the midst.

WhenIi went to Rob and Liesa’s house that day I was a complete wreck ,I was diabetic, (I had no medical plan it was costing me $600 per month for drugs,)I was dyslexic,I was full of pain from an old injury, I had an hyetas hernia,which meant i could not bend over without the contents of my stomach coming up my throat.I had no money.I had no self worth,I had no concept of how Satan was ruling my life.

When I left Rob and Lisa’s house on that Saturday evening after the conference my life was completely changed,i have to make it clear no one prayed over me, no one laid hands on me,they simply taught me GODs truth and how to accept it by rejecting Satan’s lies.Every word spoken that weekend was confirmed by scripture, I learned by the power of GOD through the LORD JESUS CHRIST , I had the authority to send Satan and all his demons to the dry place ,I learned that GODs plan for all of us is not only to be made well again but GODs perfect plan is that we should not be sick in the first place. I learned (knew in my heart ) that GOD really did love me,he would not have made me if he had not first loved me.I learned that GODs love had conditions,or may be i should say one condition,that is to reject completely the lies of Satan,and as Scripture says seek you first the Kingdom of Heaven and all else will be given onto you. When I left Rob and Lisa’s that night I knew the Diabetes was gone, the black spots in my eyes that looked like tadpoles were gone, that terrible tiredness was gone, I could bend over the contents of my stomach stayed in my stomach, But it did not stop there,I was helping in the car park at new Hope on Christmas eve it was so cold that night,a friend saw me an invited me to his house for coffee,when I went to his house I took off my shoes at the door as usual but when I came out I knelt down to tie my shoe and realised I can’t do this, for over 20 years the pain in my knees and back would not let me kneel down,I stood up wahooo the pain had gone,on the coldest night of the year when I should have been as stiff as a board I was completely mobile. In 2011 I started to go to Lisa’s classes at the church,she encouraged every one to read a portion ,but any one who did not want to read simply tapped the table and the next person read ,every time it was my turn to read I tapped the table, most people there must have known I could not read ,BUT JAN ( now my wonderful wife ) did not leave it there she encouraged me to try and read,we laughed about it one day she said William I don’t know a single word you are reading I said Jan I don’t know a single word I am reading so iIknow you have no chance, but we persevered now not only can I read but
I want to read ,from barely recognising a word, to reading and writing in one year,without a single English Lesson ever,is another miracle in my life. I know it was because I was so stubborn that GOD had to bring me to the bottom for me to realise that he is our provider,He proved this by another miracle I have not had secure work since I arrived in Canada just odd jobs here and there and gifts from my brothers and sisters in CHRIST (which I am so grateful for ) but to GOD be the glory I have never wanted for anything.

It is to GOD be the glory for sure but without his faithful obedient solders I for one would not have made it. To Rob, Lisa ,Jan ,Mark,The Lady’s from Guelph I am at a loss to know how I can ever thank you. W
